Multiple weaknesses and strengths are evident in Bridgman and Cabiles' research proposals' significance, problem background, and title sections. Bridgman's research title evaluates whether the Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) should be DoD's answer for Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD-12). The title's strength is that it clearly outlines the dependent and independent variables. The weakness entails the fact that it is hard to establish the relationship between DBIDS and HSPD-12. Regarding the significance and problem background section, the research outlines how President George Bush signed the HSPD-12, which called for a distinct model for federal employees. (Bridgman, 2013, 01). However, this section does not explain the effects of the president's directive on people's lives and how it warrants the implementation of DBIDS. The situation could lead to searching for irrelevant data.[Bridgman, James. “The Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS); Should it be the DoD's answer for Homeland Security Presidential Directive/HSPD-12?” (2013): 1-7.]
